Moms & Tots Ministry

Thank you for your interest in the Moms & Tots Ministry at St. Laurence!  We look forward to meeting you and growing in our faith and love of motherhood together!

OUR VISION: The St. Laurence Moms & Tots ministry strives to create a welcoming and loving atmosphere for mothers with young children in our Catholic community in support of Christ’s love.

OUR MISSION: The mission of St. Laurence Moms & Tots is to encourage and support the vocation of motherhood, help each other develop a deeper relationship with Christ, and provide a chance for our infants and toddlers to play and pray in a safe environment while making friends with their peers at St. Laurence.
 
We support and follow the St. Laurence Parish Mission: “We the people of St. Laurence Catholic Church are centered in the love of Christ and live to glorify God in all that we do.” Let us be filled with the Holy Spirit, strengthened and renewed in our commitment to God and one another, to serve as a light to Sugar Land.

 WHAT DO WE DO?

• Meet on a weekly basis on Monday mornings to support each other in prayer for our intentions and enable safe play for our children.
• Share our experiences, offer guidance and love to one another in our efforts to raise healthy, faith-filled children.
